file-recovery

After a windows crash, I bought a new computer. I would like to recover the mails stored in the old install. I can access the old drive as a data disk, but windows won't boot anymore from it.

I've reinstalled everything on the new computer, but can't find my old emails. Where are they stored ?

Since I can't boot from the old drive, I cannot use Outlook's .pst export :(
